#1402 - Catch, Record, Release

Dakota Life - 10/06/2011

How good is the walleye fishing in South Dakota? Good enough that Lake Oahe was chosen as the site of an international walleye fishing championship in 2011. (Unlike many big-name tournaments, this one features a catch-and release rule designed to protect fish resources.) SDPB rides along with several of the pros participating in a pre-tournament scouting of the big lake - a rare chance to see some of the nation's best competitive anglers at work and up close.
